We look at the division of 683417 by 42 
Our goal is to divide 683417 by 42.

Step 1:
When dividing 6 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 68 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 42 from 68.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 263 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
263 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 11.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 252 from 263 and we're left with 11.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 114 / 42

Step 4:
The number 42 fits into 114 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 162.0
Deduct 84 from 114 and we're left with 30.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 301 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 301 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1627.0
Deduct 294 from 301 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 77 1 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16271.0
Subtract 42 from 77 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
42 goes into 350 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16271.8
If we subtract 336 from 350, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
42 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16271.83
Subtract 126 from 140 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 140 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 14.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16271.833
If we subtract 126 from 140, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final result is 16271.833 with a remainder of 0.0014.
